[edit] Suggestions for improvement?

It should be noted that work on this list has been suspended pending the review of its potential deletion, as it is pointless to put in data which may be deleted in a day or two. However, any comments on how to improve the list are more than welcome. This is the first list of this type I have created that has drawn any amount of attention, so I welcome any comments. I already anticipate trying to add verified birth and death years to all names where possible, and, depending upon the length of the list, all the individuals mentioned as being born in San Francisco in the books I am using as references provided that they do not easily fall under some subcategory, for instance, San Francisco Giants personnel. Also, I would be very interested in knowing whether any of you think there would be any value in creating a list of baseball players from California organized according to their place of birth, with a link to that list on this page, as that also would make the final list more workable. Other similar lists could be considered as well. Thank you for having read this comment, and for any response you may choose to give.

P. S. I am myself utterly incompetent at picture insertion and selection, and unfortunately (?) know that. However, if any of you knew of pictures which you think might improve the list, and actually knew how to put them in (unlike me) I would be greatly appreciative.
